BlackHat has always been one of our favorite industry conferences. Although OffSec has been providing educational training for years at BlackHat, this was our first year holding an official booth. The booth was a major hit, as we had the opportunity to chat with long-time Offensive Security alumni and also meet some new faces.
Ning Wang, the CEO of Offensive Security, was also interviewed by Security Guy TV onsite at BlackHat. She spoke on OffSec’s unique training methodology, the mindset of a hacker, and the future of cyber threats. It’s full of interesting nuggets. You can watch it here:
Training
As we’ve done every year at BlackHat, we held several completely sold out, live training classes for several of our courses:
- Advanced Web Attacks and Exploitation (AWAE)
- Penetration Testing with Kali Linux (PWK — which offers the infamous OSCP certification)
- Advanced Windows Exploitation
If you missed out on any of the live training classes, don’t fret — you can still learn more and sign up for our online trainings here. Pursue an Offensive Security certification at your own pace, on your own time.
